Fallbrook Band Boosters open scholarship applications

FALLBROOK – The Fallbrook Band Boosters have announced, for the second year in a row, that they will be providing scholarships for two Fallbrook Union High School District seniors.

The Band scholarships were re-implemented in 2020 because Fallbrook Band Boosters felt it was important to continue supporting students in their pursuit of music and color guard after high school. As such, one scholarship will be awarded to a musician and one scholarship to a color guard student, who both show initiative and passion in furthering their experience in their craft in college.

In 2020, the Booster program gave away two $500 scholarships. In 2021, it was important to the Booster Board to increase the amount to $1000 per student. Booster President Chris Potter said, “These students have shown they have the talent, the fortitude, and the dedication to the program…it is our board’s belief, that they have been cheated a normal senior year and we feel it is important to show them that they are valued and their Booster program is proud of their accomplishments.”

Announcements of the scholarship application have been submitted to the students and on social media. Communication Director Bree Salas said, “These students have had a rough hand dealt to them this year. Since the Boosters have the ability to help them continue in their pursuit, we hope the students apply and continue their path in college.”
